Simplicity In Vogue

A simple aspect
this is, but then I believe
the finest sight seen today!
The application
of old folk shuffling on by
in life’s juncture ‘Holding Hands’.

I so agree with you here. A sight to behold, old folds holding hands. Great Choka, Harry! However I'm counting 6 syllables in the 5th line. Perhaps replacing "old" with golden brings it to 7. :) Thanks for sharing your observation and thank you for your comments on mine today. Caroline.

Once when I was younger, I saw my grandparents walking down the street hand-in-hand. It gave me hope that this is what love should lead to -- lasting bliss. Your choka is lovely and brought me a wonderful memory, Harry. Best wishes in Constance's contest. Love, Carolyn
